The Whisper Sandal by KEEN is a sandal that provides you with protection and stability like a normal street shoe, but allows you to stomp through puddles, wade in morning dew or just walk on the beach without worrying about wetting out your shoes. A sandal with a thin, lightweight, washable polyester webbing that cradles your foot providing ventilation for your feet, but with its patented toe protection and burly sole, the Whisper can get you pretty much anywhere you need to go in the great outdoors or urban jungle.

These are great shoes for casual and some technical wear. I definitely recommend them for any watersport or activity that would involve getting your feet wet. They're waterproof, but the waterproofing doesn't force you to sacrifice comfort or breathability. If I had any complaint with the shoe, I'd say it didn't have enough cushion. It's definitely very comfortable, but I wear it to work and have to wear them on hard concrete floors for ten hours a day. I have sesmoiditis in my left foot that requires just a bit more cushion in a shoe.That being said, it's still a wonderful shoe for virtually any activity and I'd definitely recommend it to friends.

picked this one as compromise between newport, which has more support, and the clearwater which had best narrow fit on top, but not enough support under the foot. great how soft they are on foot, softer than most shoes.So far worked well on boat, beach, pool. haven't had them submerged yet to know how they are when wet. If they had a shoe w newport under the foot and clearwater on top, would be perfect, but this was compromise. love blue color. so far, worth it, but wouldn't want to wear for long walk due to not much support and a little chafing on toe, but less chafing than most new shoes.

I bought my first pair of Keens about 5 years ago and wore the tail out of them. Once of the things I loved was how wide they were. I have wide feet and it can be tough to find good wide shoes. I have bought several pairs since then, and they've all been sufficiently wide. These, however, are far narrower than previous incarnations. That said, they fit ok and are great for hiking around San Diego County.

The lace on one of the sandals was put in from the right side of the loop and because of that the loop is twisted. The lace should have been put in from the left (or bottom) of the loop then it would lie flat. Other than that I love the sandals.
